I wonder what thier brothers and sisters from the Middle East are donating??


Anyone with a heart would donate to these poor people suffering from such a terrible tragedy no matter who they are. I'm positive people from all over the world will donate to this cause, and I'm more than positive that their 'brothers and sisters in the Middle East' are donating too. We're OBLIGED by religion to help people in need, and any true Muslim would go out of their way to help people who are suffering. Why do you always have to come up with some sort of stupid, insensitive thing to say, no matter how horrible the situation? Jeez!!! I would donate to ANYONE suffering from such a tragedy...ANYONE, no matter who they are, no matter what their religion, race, nationality, etc. A human being is a human being, and human suffering is human suffering. Religion and race should NEVER even be an issue to mention when people are suffering. A lot of non-Muslims have suffered from this tragedy as well. My family donated for the tsunami victims. It doesn't matter if that money will help Muslims or a non-Muslims, or both. A human being is a human being, and its important to help people during such tragedies no matter who they are, and no matter who you are. Its a very, very sad situation. I'm SHOCKED that you would even bring such things up during such a tragic time. Okay...maybe I'm not shocked. Afterall, you ARE Richard. *sigh*
